Entire Agreement
Unless otherwise stated in writing by an authorised officer or representative of HPS and the Buyer, the Terms and Conditions set out below will constitute the entire contract between the parties, to the exclusion of any terms and conditions contained in the Buyer’s order which conflict with or purport to modify these Terms and Conditions.
Prices
Prices shown on HPS are correct on the day of purchase. Prices can change without notice.
Delivery & Risk
Delivery shall take place when the goods have been delivered to the Buyer's premises or such other place as the Buyer may require. The risk shall pass to the Buyer on delivery. The Buyer shall take delivery or procure delivery to be taken on such days, between such hours, and in such quantities as may be reasonably prescribed by HPS.
Transport
Subject as provided below, transport will be effected or arranged by HPS at its expense in respect of goods to be delivered on the mainland of England and Wales.
If HPS is informed by the Buyer that goods are to be transported by passenger train, air, or other special delivery, the carriage charges involved will be included in the Buyer’s invoice.
Loss or Damage in Transit
HPS shall have no liability in respect of goods lost or damaged in transit unless notification of the nature and extent of such claim is received by HPS within 2 days of receipt of damaged goods, or in the event of loss, within 10 days of the date of invoice.
HPS’s liabilities shall in no circumstances exceed the invoiced value of the goods so lost or damaged. Goods subject to claim shall be stored by the Buyer free of charge for HPS’s inspection.
Conditions & Warranties
[a] In respect of goods which are or have become defective by reason of faulty materials or workmanship at the date of delivery, or up to twelve months from such date, save as provided below, the liability of HPS is confined to replacement of such defective goods free of charge or, at its sole discretion, to issue a credit to the Buyer to the net value of the defective goods at the time of delivery. Any goods which are so replaced or in respect of which a credit is so issued shall be the property of HPS.
In addition to the foregoing, the Buyer shall be entitled to the benefit, insofar as it may be transferred to the Buyer, of any additional rights which HPS may have against the supplier of such goods in respect of such defects.
Otherwise, HPS shall not be liable for any injury, loss, damage, costs, or expenses, whether arising directly or indirectly from delivery, non-delivery, or the condition of the goods, other than due to the negligence or default of HPS, and the Buyer shall indemnify HPS in respect thereof.
[b] The above provisions shall not be available to the Buyer if the goods have been rendered faulty by alteration, treatment, processing, or misuse by the Buyer, installer, or ultimate user and are in lieu of any conditions and/or warranties implied by law, which are hereby excluded.
Payment
HPS must receive payment for the whole of the price of the goods you order and any applicable charges for carriage and Value Added Tax before your order can be accepted, unless otherwise agreed in advance in writing.
Title
Until full payment has been made of all debts owing by the Buyer to HPS:
[a] The property in the goods shall remain with HPS.
[b] During such period, the Buyer shall keep and store the goods in such a manner that they can be identified as being the property of HPS.
[c] The goods shall be held by the Buyer as a bailee on behalf of HPS, but without prejudice to the foregoing, the Buyer may sell the goods to third parties in the normal course of business.
[d] The benefit of any Contract of Sale and the proceeds of any sale shall be the property of HPS, and HPS shall be entitled to have transferred to it any claim it may have against a third party resulting from a sale of goods by the Buyer.
[e] HPS may, by written notice, terminate the Buyer’s power of sale at any time if the Buyer fails to make payment in accordance with the provisions of Condition 8 hereof, or where the Buyer is an individual or a partnership, if he or any of the partners respectively becomes bankrupt, has a Receiver and/or Manager appointed in respect of his assets, or has a receiving order made against him or enters into any composition or arrangement with creditors generally, or where the Buyer is a company, it enters into liquidation (whether compulsory or voluntary), or has a Receiver and/or Manager appointed in respect of any of its assets or enters into any composition or arrangement with creditors in general.
At any time after the termination of the power of sale, HPS may repossess the goods, and the Buyer hereby grants HPS an irrevocable licence to enter upon any premises of the Buyer for the purpose of so doing.
Exceptions
Neither party shall be responsible for any delay or failure to fulfil its obligations under the Contract if caused by any circumstances which are not within its reasonable control, including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any strike or the threat of a strike, Governmental Order or restrictions, compliance with any order of any national, provincial, port, or any other public authority, or any person acting or purporting to act on behalf of such authority.
Waiver
Any neglect, forbearance, or indulgence on the part of HPS relating to its strict rights under the Contract shall in no way be deemed a waiver, implied or otherwise, of such rights.
Variation of Terms & Conditions
